Exporting a Report to a pdf file with drill down!
Hi,
I would like to export a Report to a pdf file.
My Report includes drill down options. I require the exported pdf with drill down options.
(Similar to Navigation options in a PDF file).
I hope this makes sense.
Please provide a better solution for me.
If am not wrong, this facility is not available with Crystal Reports!!!
Thanks,
Ramesh.

Report to a PDF file with Ole Obj and codebar fields
Im writing a report with some ole objects (images) and a codebar Field. When I run the report saving the result to a PDF file the Ole objects and the codebar fields doesnt appears in it. But, when run it directly in the report builder it does appears. Some idea about it? I would apreciate it.
LuisYou mean a barcode? That is a font, not an OLE object. If you have the font installed on your PC, you can have barcodes in your pdf report.
PDF also has the possibility on embedded fonts, so the font doesn't have to be on every PC. There are several threads about this. Search this forum for 'embedded font', e.g. Font embedding in reports -
Adobe 7, and opening a pdf file with a auto generated report
We have upgraded to the latest version of a tool we use to generate reports. The older version, when you exported the report to a PDF file, it would open it in an internet broswer, IE 6/7 in this case, and just display the PDF in the browser.
With the latest version of the reporting tool, when you export a report to a PDF file, it opens up a blank IE windows, and subsequently opens the autogenerated report in a separate Adobe Reader window, but it does not have the primary focus. It pop's under the blank IE window. This causes a lot of confusion to our employees who are not computer savvy as they are not aware the PDF actually opened since the window did not get primary focus on the screen.
The company which writes the tool for us says there are no changes to the way it auto generates the pdf file, and insists it has nothing to do with their software.
We decided to dig a little deeper and only found one difference between the old and the new software.
Old - Content-Type: application/pdf
New - Content-Type: application/pdf;charset=UTF-8
Would that command cause our problems? It almost seems at though Adobe 7 plugin in IE7 doesn't recognize the "charset=UTF-8" and dumps the pdf to the full Adobe reader.
If anybody has any insight, or would need some more info to help solve the problem just let me know.
Also, we have to stay with Adobe 7, since all 7000+ computer's this affects have identical images, and upgrading to a new version costs $$$$ and has to go through massive channels.Welcome To Discussions Kathy216!
If these are files, that are already on the Hard Drive, click once on a pdf document to highlight it.
Press the Command + I keys, to Get Info.
Click on the ▼ Disclosure Triangle for Open with:.
Select Adobe if listed. If it is not listed, select Other..., and navigate to Adobe, and press Add.
In the Get Info window, click on Change All.
If these are pdf documents, that you are viewing on the Internet, a handy utility to use is PDF Browser Plugin.

Unable export crystal report XI to pdf on window server 2003 SP1
I have a class asp function to export crystal report XI to pdf file, it is workable at winXP but when i copy it to window server 2003, it exported the file with zero length (file size is 0kb).
when i try to open the zero length pdf file, it shows the file is already open or in use by another application.
when i run my export function, i can see there is a new file created at the folder "C:\windows\Temp", when i try to open the tmp file, i get the message "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process", i can open the tmp file after i end the process "w3wp.exe network service", the data in the tmp file is exactly what i need to export to the pdf file.
At the window server 2003, I have installed the Crystal Report XI developer edition,
For the web application folder and the pdf export folder, Read, Write and Modify permission has been set for the following accounts:
1. myServer\Administrators
2. myServer\ASPNET
3. myserver\IUSR_myserver
4. myServer\IWAN_myserver
5. Network Service
6. System
7. myServer\Users
I think it is the permission problem, but how to set the right permission at the window server 2003 SP1? please advise. thanksHello,
It is a permission issue. When you export Crystal first tries to write the file to the local TEMP folder and then delete it to see if it has read/write permissions. If it fails to delete the file you need to give the TEMP folder on the WEB server permissions for your application. Check Microsofts WEB site on how to set permissions on shared folders for your ASP application.
You may want to search in forums also, this looks familar.
Thank you

Cannot export 3D model from 3D PDF file
Hello,
I'm trying to export a model in 3D PDF file with Acrobat 3D to a 3D file format but when I right click on the model no export function shows. Looking in the properties of the file it says that it is not secured (everything in Document Restriction Summary is "Allowed"). Am I doing something wrong?Hello,
The PDF file you have received has been created with the option 3D Format in PDF: U3D ECMA3.
Therefore you cannot use the export data function.
Only files created using 3D Format in PDF: PRC Brep can be exported to another format.
I would suggest you to ask for the native CAD files or maybe to ask for another PDF file converted using 3D Format in PDF: PRC Brep.
This is not a bug this is just as designed.
hope it helps

Exporting report to seperate PDF files based on a report's Groups
Hi all,
I have RPT files created in CR 2008 designer. My aim is to use CR.NET SDK with Visual Studio 2010 to create an application that would allow me to load these RPT file(s) to my application which then exports to PDF.
However, the catch is that my RPT files have groupings (each group starts a new page) and I want each group to be printed into separate PDF files, with each filename being the group name.
I have done a sample windows application with the CR viewer loading the RPT file and exporting the entire RPT output to PDF. But is there a way to iterate through the Groups in a report and print them to PDF separately?
Any suggestions much appreciated!
Thanks.Ludek,
I am using CRVS2010.
Using the CR designer is not efficient for me to run the report for every group and export each to PDF - this would take a lot of time for a larger report which is the reason for a programmatic solution.
There are third party programs that achieve this. There seems to be a discrepancy if those applications can use the API to burst By Group and you mention that is cannot be done? ([example program that can do this|http://www.milletsoftware.com/Tab3.htm])
Thanks. -
Is it possible to export the page activity report to a pdf file?
Is it possible to export the page activity report to a pdf file?and is there any api or samples to be reference
Do you mean audit history? One method would be similar to the following sample that you could extend to create a PDF from the data returned:
http://www.eyelock.net/blog/archives/533
BUT the method used above via JCR Query is an implementation detail. For future proofing, you should use the ReplicationStatus status = page.adaptTo(ReplicationStatus.class in your code to get the audit logs for a particular page, rather than a straight JCR query. (recommended by Jörg Hoh @ http://forums.adobe.com/message/5253760). -

When it is reading a row from MS-Excel it is writing to the .pdf file from last cell to first cell.( 2 cell in 1 place, 1 cell in 2 place like if the row has two cells with data as : Name of the Intern: Kesavulu Reddy then it is writing to the .pdf file as Kesavulu Reddy Name of Intern)
and the second issue is:
It is not recognizing the date format..it is recognizing the date in first row only......
Plz Tell me wht is the solution for this...

How do I edit a PDF file with Adobe PDF Pack?
How do I edit a PDF file with Adobe PDF Pack?
Well, you don't. Editing a PDF is a difficult and fraught business even with the most expensive software.
But PDF Pack lets you export to Word; then often you can edit in Word. Now you can make a new PDF. It might look like the original, or it might not. If small changes matter you might be out of luck. ON NO ACCOUNT USE THIS FOR GOVERNMENT FORMS. -
An attempt to open a pdf file with Photoshop Elements (version 12) resulted in a pop generated by the Photoshop Editor stated "Impossible to execute this operation (opening file) because one of the specified colour is not managed". Is there any mean to adapt the file to make its reading possible?
Did somebody get the same problem?It is a high order probability that your SQL's report generator is creating the PDF, not Acrobat (which by design and EULA cannot be used in as/with server).
That the report generator outputs to an old-old version of PDF bears this out.
Wiki articles on PDF are very nice for those high level intro summaries.
To know / understand PDF you purchase and study the ISO Standard for PDF (ISO 32000-1:2008).
Rather than "PDF validation" you may want to consider addressing the appearent root cause of the problem(s).
You can change the email2fax application to one that can deal with older PDF versions.
You can change the report generator to one that can output to the ISO Standard.
(Perhaps the in-use application can be configured to output to the current version of PDF (i.e., the ISO Standard).

Pdf-file with clickable links from iweb 09
How can I create a pdf-file with clickable links from a website created in iweb 09?
All iwork apps have an export button, which fulfills this task, but iweb does not.
Any idea?I am running 10.5.6 on a MacBook Pro 2.53 GHz. I create my PDFs via the print dialogue. I tried to create a PDF from iweb with Hyperlinks activated and all links are dead. I tried to create the PDF from the Safari window, were all links are active, and – funny enough – sometimes all, sometimes half of my links are dead. But most of them do not work. As soon as I create PDFs from third party sites, everything works fine.
